Amenities vs Necessities

As others pointed out, the survey is asking, all else equal, what would make someone buy one perfectly good house over another perfectly good house.

For me, I'd absolutely rather have fiber than the other amenities. Then again, I don't recall ever living in an amenity-rich environment. Still, going an extra mile or two to a pool or tennis court, versus simply not having high internet speeds...the choice is pretty clear.

I would rather walk the 4 miles to the nearest pool than live next door and have to dial up. I don't have fiber, but 12/10mbps Comcast is fast enough compared to the AT&T Worldnet Service.

somebody sure can shovel it. sure goes against what real facts are. the real facts are is that the only area within 200 miles of here that is still enjoying strong house sales is a non fios area.
